The Remuria

I know I haven't posted here in ages and I'm sorry for that, but I thought I would blog here as a way to kinda write down a thought I have been having. Since my little vacation from blogging and just meditating on my personal path and practice
-Okay i'm digressing-

I have been toying with the idea about Remus and Romulus-as we know from popular legends that Romulus killed Remus and founded Rome. Well doing some research on the Lemuria, which on my personal calendar I have moved it Oct.31| Nov.1-

However, according to Ovid's Fasti, the origin of this ancient festival, who derives Lemuria from a supposed Remuria was that it had been instituted by Romulus to appease the spirit of Remus. So, that got me thinking-and toying with the idea of the Remuria (May 9,11,13) as a day of atonement and appeasing Remus' spirit.

A day filled with prayers and meditation....

The Slumbering Lord

Lately, as I have been sitting at my desk at work half working and taking my break in the court yard here at the paper.

And as the cold Las Vegas air rushes round, a thought comes to me. A thought that at times feels like it's coming from left field. Lately, I have been thinking of Dionysus as a slumber god that awakens come spring. Or if you will a kinda of resurrection and thus bring his gifts to us....I know it sounds crazy but for some reason as I try to dismiss this concept that I don't know where it came from, the more it pops up....

I don't know where it came from or why I keep seeing this vision in my head-The lord that slumbers and awakens again.

Thoughts?
